Chris Paddack Traded to Tigers to Bolster Rotation, Set for Wednesday Debut

Pitcher Chris Paddack was acquired by the Detroit Tigers from the Minnesota Twins on Monday in a three-player trade that also sent right-hander Randy Dobnak to Detroit in exchange for catching prospect Enrique Jimenez. Paddack, who posted a 3-9 record with a 4.95 ERA in 21 starts for the Twins this season, will join the Tigers' rotation to address recent injuries to Reese Olson and Jackson Jobe. The 29-year-old right-hander is expected to make his debut for Detroit on Wednesday against Arizona and is set to become a free agent at the end of the 2025 season.
